We had a great stay here for our first time in Bangkok. The area didn’t feel very touristy, we were a 10 minute walk from the nearest BTS station and the ferry- which is very cheap and useful to get to the grand palace and other attractions. There is a 7/11 nearby as well as multiple restaurants and stalls. The apartment is great for 2 people and the pool was an absolute life-saver; we used it everyday when we came back from sightseeing. A lovely place to stay and I would highly recommend.
